Can giving benadryl (diphenhydramine) to a child cause diarrhea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diarrhea & Benadryl (diphenhydramine): This is very unlikely unless there is a specific allergy to the medication or if liquid form of Benadryl (diphenhydramine) there is an allergy to one of the ingredients in the liquid. In my experience allergy to Benadryl (diphenhydramine) is rare.
